Me time in winter In winter, cold weather and heated air dry out the skin, so it needs extra care with moisturising masks and rich, nourishing creams. When bathing, the water should only be lukewarm. Mild shower oils or bath additives are ideal, and you should moisturise your skin well afterwards.

Pollen season: hay fever on the approach Hay fever, also known as pollen allergy or seasonal allergic rhinitis, is one of the most common allergic diseases not only in Europe. Globally, pollen allergy is recognised as a major public health problem, with climate change expected to exacerbate the situation. It affects millions of people and is caused by hypersensitivity of the immune system to pollen. The condition mainly occurs during the pollen season in spring and summer, but can cause symptoms in sensitive individuals almost all year round.
